How Early did BH Start?

4legsRbest

I am only 15 weeks with twins, but I am either having BH or when they move it feels weird. With my DS I didn't get BH until well into 3rd tri, but it feels a little the same, not exactly, but I don't know else it could be. They aren't regular cxt and I have an appt with my MFM next week and plan on asking. Just curious if this could just be movement. It feels more like stretching than contractions and happens mostly when I am still and in bed.

ETA: And it may not matter but both have an anterior placenta, so I don't expect to feel movement for a while.

My BHs started around 16 weeks with the twins.

Mine started around 16 weeks this time too.  My MFM said they start earlier with twins just because your uterus is bigger.

I started getting them at 12w with my twins.

@AnotherDreamer Yeah, I think I am mostly feeling the Turing and twisting, but occasionally a BH is thrown in there. Thanks ladies!!

I'm sorry this is such a newbie question, but what do BH feel like? I'm 30 weeks and have had bad RLP but nothing what I'd call contractions. Just wondering how to tell the difference.

Ugh. Mine started at about 14weeks. They are pretty brutal at this point. Honestly, they are SO powerful that sometimes I worry my water will burst right at that moment!!

For me my belly suddenly gets very tight/taunt and uncomfortable with BHs,  but it's not painful though like a contraction. With DS, when my contractions started they weren't super painful but I could tell they were different than the BHs. The pain was different and definitely stronger.


Thank you!
